+## Summary of reactions
+
+\textbf{Combustion:} \ce{C_{$x$} H_{$y$} + $z$O2 -> $x$CO2 + {$\dfrac{y}{2}$} H2O} \quad where $z=x+\dfrac{y}{4}$
+
+\textbf{Substitution:} e.g. halogenation/chlorination, catalysed by UV (alkanes) or compounds (alcohols etc.) which creates free radicals (unpaired e-)
+
+\textbf{Addition:} \ce{C=C} bond is broken, catalyst is required
+
+\textbf{Addition polymerisation:} uses addition to form a polymer
+
+\textbf{Condensation polymerisation:} produces \ce{H2O}
+
+\textbf{Oxidation:} occurs in alcohols to form aldehydes with catalysts \ce{H+/MnO4- (aq)} or \ce{H+/Cr2O7{2-} (aq)} - see combustion equation
+
+\textbf{Cracking:} heat/pressure/catalyst to break molecules
